The Fail That Is Autocorrect
We’ve all had that experience – we’re typing and autocorrect kicks in and changes the words you’re typing so instead of saying ‘thanks’ you randomly just wrote ‘Thanksgiving’ in an email to your boss. Well, a friend told me to check out damnyouautocorrect.com and gotta tell you – great stuff and perfect for a Friday. You’ll get a chuckle but most of it is too vulgar for me to post here (it’s that good).
Anyway, any of you experience any miserable autocorrections on your phone? Share your embarrassment with the group – it’s healthy.

I had a very similar issue but this almost made me choke on my OJ this AM. Mine changed Hottie! Later to Hogtie! Later. I almost did not notice but it was priceless when we spoke the next time.

@Rod Simmons: LMAO!
one of the things that I don’t like about the iPhone is how it changes “hell” to “he’ll”… minor annoyance, but I always forget that it does that
That’s because there is no such place as Hell for iPhone users. We all float along in a Steve Jobs induced state of euphoria. LOL
Okay, next get it for us Surround users!
Hmmm, that was supposed to be in the wp7 tethers article. Reply glitch?
@MartiM: gotta learn how to get into diagnostics for HTC. In the thread (the right one, not this one:)) someone suggests the codes for their HTC Android phone – you can try them out:)
